Always had time to answer our many questions, they know what they're doing and didn't mind me doing my own research and bugging them with questions afterwards.

Before I stumbled upon Tekamar, I held a skeptical view of brokers, believing they were solely focused on their own interests and indifferent towards their clients. Well, let me tell you, Tekamar shattered that misconception. It couldn't be further from the truth. What surprised me the most was that they represent you without charging any additional fees. Tekamar's primary responsibility is to scour the market for great deals and reliable mortgage providers for your home. They excel at finding the best providers with the most favorable rates, all while negotiating on your behalf. Think about it, can you really surpass their expertise by embarking on a DIY mortgage search, approaching your credit union or bank without any industry knowledge? The answer is a resounding no. That's precisely why you need a broker. Tekamar goes above and beyond. I spent countless hours on the phone with Tom, discussing the process, and he effortlessly explained everything, taking me along on the journey. He consistently justified his decisions and provided insightful explanations. Every single time, I found myself in agreement with his judgment. They are consummate professionals. Not only did they secure us amazing rates, but they also made the entire process feel as smooth as butter. A heartfelt thank you to Tom and the entire team at Tekamar. You guys are truly exceptional.Richie and the team have treated me amazing over the years.

Richie and the team have treated me amazing over the years. Many banks wouldn’t take someone my age seriously walking in the front door, since day one Tekamar has treated me with the utmost respect and professionalism on several transactions. I’ve referred countless friends, family and colleagues to their firm and will continue to do this. Thank you for consistently providing an efficient and transparent service!This was a second opportunity to work with Tekamar Mortgages Ltd. Several years ago Tekamar Mortgages Ltd.

This was a second opportunity to work with Tekamar Mortgages Ltd. Several years ago Tekamar Mortgages Ltd. Broker Ester Arrowsmith took on the request to put together a lender with our son, who was purchasing his first home. Ester kept our son informed all through the process, and passed on the agreement between the lending institution and himself with only signatures required. I recognized the value of an experienced broker, searching for best value for her customers's need and to top it off, everything was kept local. This summer my wife and I experienced the same customer service excellence. We found a home we wished to purchase and we went to Tekamar Mortgages Ltd for help. I was directed to Tom Arrowsmith and explained the situation. He gave us clear direction on what we needed to provide to help him with our purchase. Tom's experience as to how the Lender's bundle services together, helped us compile a package between mortgage and line of credit. We found a lender we hadn't even considered, who met with us in our home to finalize the document's signing. Again, Tom followed up with myself on each step of the process, with a quick text, or email, and at the final stage, personal phone calls. My wife and I are grateful for the Tekamar Mortgages Ltd team. Thank you for helping our family again.

Trusted by these lenders
(and a couple dozen more)Getting a mortgage without a broker, is a bit like DIY dentistry
Sure you could pull the tooth out yourself, but having a dentist would probably help.
Getting advice from a mortgage broker means making the right plan today, so you can start working towards your mortgage-free tomorrow.
Helping people beat the banks since 1979.
Tekamar Mortgages has been based in Salmon Arm, BC since 1979. In that time we've worked with thousands of people across Canada.
We built our business on repeat customers. The plan was simple: treat every customer like somone we'd like to work with again and again until they were mortgage free, then make a plan to get them there. Nearly half a century later and so far it has worked.
95% of Tekamar's customers returned for their second, third and even fourth mortgages. We're pretty proud of that, and would love the opportunity to show you why so many people trust us with one of their biggest decisions.
